I got my blood work results of course Dr is gone for the day. Could you tell me if GFR 60 A - means anything, it said something about Chronic Kidney disease. In the past it has been 60 but this is the first time there is a flag with the Letter "A" ( I have noticed swelling in my stomach, hands and ankles at night and morning esp after eating salt) also Bun-Creatinine is 22 reg Creatinine is 1.0 I'm a 43 years old white Female, my weight is 215. I have been battling a yeast infection, I have Afib, IBS, Gerds, had a full hysterectomy due to uterine cancer. I'm on Multaq, metoprolol, omeprozole, meclizine, and 325 mg asprin.
